After some researches and meetings with Sophie and Anya from Elysia, we choose which of our specialties will perfectly match with each other.

The various aromas of dark fruits and chocolate with a hint of wood coming from a light oak aging are showing first. Once you get it, the perfect balance takes place between fresh fruits, gourmet chocolate, and nutty notes… A true delight with the gougère pastry of Elysia. It’s definitely a great couple!

Secondly, we choose the Bidoli Friulano Friuli DOC Grave 2017. This is one of our favorites! Made from the very rare grape Friulano, this wine is produced in the North East of Italy. This wine has been selected for its great freshness, a good acidity and a light bouquet of flowers and citric fruits makes it perfect for picnic time in Summer season.

Our final choice has been logical: Kurtin Opera Prima IGP Delle Venezie 2016. The winemaker blends this white wine with a selection of Pinot Bianco, Ribolla Gialla, and Chardonnay. The particularity of this blend comes from a long-maceration, the altitude of the vines and the sunny region of origin. It guarantees to the wine an opulent taste and a rich and complex bouquet of various exotic and stone fruits, olives and acacia flower.

And you know what? You can pair those aromas perfectly with food, especially gougères pastries. Lucky you are!
